OK now before we start I have a question...
What is the deal with Twilight? I seriously have no idea why everyone is all ga ga over this book/movie series. The reason I bring this up is because I just watched the scream awards and every other thing that was said had to do with the New Moon movie. Anyone who can explain to me what is so amazing about this I will make mention of you in the next chapter.
Since I am running a little low at the moment on great inspiring things to make mention of my beta I will just say thank you AngelicCrossplay for doing it. Also for staying up until the wee hours of the morning talking with me, our chats help with the whole writing thing.
Angelic: I refuse to talk about Twilight. Ugh. Don't let me near that book- I'll rip it to shreds. Anyway, enjoy. Goes to die in a corner from RL
Thank you everyone who liked my choice for Optimus and Ratchet's holoforms I am glad that you liked them.
Will groaned and rolled over in his bed while his eyes fluttered open. He glared at the clock on the table next to him and saw that it was almost 11:30 AM. He usually never slept in this late, but given the circumstances of the previous night, he wasn't all that upset about it.
"I will come back, just give me some time."
The parting words of his wife kept echoing in his mind as he laid there staring at the ceiling. He was sure that she would come back like she said, but what would happen after that he wasn't sure. He slowly got up and out of bed and made his way over to the window that over looked the back yard. He could see the barn with the door slightly open; he knew that Ironhide was in there probably worrying about him like the big bot tended to do.
He figured that Sarah was right- he did need to work things out with Ironhide, and needed to find out just what was going on. Letting out a sigh, he moved to get ready for the day. He performed the normal routine of showering and brushing his teeth, which gave him time to think about his situation more. Needless to say, it did little to put him in a better mood. He started his slow decent down the stairs and instantly noticed the oddities that were present in his house.
The normal sounds of Annabelle playing were not there, along with the sounds and smells of Sarah's cooking. He never knew how much he missed them until that moment; somehow it seemed easier to forget about those things when he was off on a tour somewhere. But now they hit him hard like a punch to the gut, and when he got to the bottom step he had to keep his hand on the railing to balance himself. After a moment he started walking again. Heading into the living room, he threw himself down on the couch and lazily reached for the remote to the television.
He turned it on and caught the beginning of a news segment.
"Police still don't know what caused the house to fall, as neighbors reported feeling several tremors right before the destruction was discovered. The house belonged to a young man named Jeremy Owens, age 25. He was unfortunately discovered in the ruins of his home late Sunday evening, and police are investigating the suspicious circumstances since this was the only home to come to any damage. There will be more on this story as it develops."
The young blond news woman reported this information while they showed a video clip of a house that looked like it had been in a fight with a giant trash compactor and lost. Will groaned again and turned the T.V off; he was tired of listening to the constant news stories that talked about destruction and death. He got enough of that with his job and he didn't want more. His bad mood was interrupted for a moment by a knock at his front door, making him wonder who would be coming to see him on a Monday morning. Will got up and made his way over to the door.
The knocking stopped as soon as he reached the door. He opened it and was greeted by the human representation of Ironhide; the large buff military man blocking almost the entire doorway and leaving only a few cracks for the light to shine through. Will grunted at the sight of the man, causing him to frown.
"Will are you alright?" He said in his rough voice.
Will let out a small laugh at the question.
"Am I alright? Oh yeah I am just dandy, never been happier." He said sarcastically.
Ironhide growled at Will's sarcasm.
"Do you want to... talk about it?" He said, not having to clarify what 'it' was.
Will glared at him for a few moments before letting out another sigh and dropping his shoulders in defeat.
"Sure." He said and moved to let Ironhide in.
The two of them walked back into the living room and Will sat back down on the couch, and Ironhide looked around the room for a moment before sitting down at the opposite end of the couch. Both of them kept looking straight ahead, neither one of them were very good at talking about how they were feeling so they sat in silence for a while. After a moment Will could no longer take the silence and had to say something.
"So... what happened now?"
Ironhide thought it over for a few minutes before answering.
"I don't know. This is all new to me, normally on Cybertron when two Cybertronians would interface it meant that they wanted to spend the rest of their lives with each other. During the act the two would merge sparks binding themselves together forever." Ironhide told him.
"Merge sparks?" Will asked.
He nodded his head.
"Yes, in a normal interfacing the two bots would revel their sparks to each other, something that is only ever done with a bonded or very close friends. The energy from the two sparks would combine, and when the bots pulled away from each other part of their spark energy would be left with the other. This would forever bond the two together; nothing could ever break the bond except for death." He informed Will.
Will was quiet for a moment as he absorbed the new information.
"So is that what you wanted to do with me?" He asked, feeling a little nervous.
Ironhide nodded his head stiffly.
"But you know I don't have one of your sparks, right? ...Or do I?" He asked, unsure about if he did or didn't have after the news about the AllSpark.
"Ratchet seems sure that you, Sam, and Mikaela will develop sparks in time." Ironhide told Will.
"Wow, well then... I guess that some day it could be a possibility, huh?" Will said quietly.
"Yes it could." Ironhide said, feeling a little hopeful. "Would... would you want to? I mean, if Sarah doesn't stay."
A slightly sad look came to Will's face at the mention of Sarah and Ironhide regretted bringing it up.
"I think.... I think that even if she decided to stay, I would still want to." Will said, and finally turned to look at Ironhide.
A look of shock came to his face as he spun his head around to stare at Will. Ironhide couldn't believe what he was hearing... Will would do that for him?
"You're saying that even if Sarah wants to stay with you, that you will leave her for me?"
Will slowly nodded his head, a pained look on his face, showing that this wasn't an easy decision.
"It's like you said yesterday- I can't help but love you." Will repeated the words Ironhide had whispered to him the previous morning in the barn.
Ironhide still couldn't believe it.
"But what about her and Annabelle?" He asked.
Will sighed heavily.
"Sarah already said that she would let me see her even if she left me, so I hope that she will still mean it even if I leave her." Will told Ironhide.
For a while the two stared at each other not knowing what to say, but then their moment together was interrupted by the sound of several vehicles pulling up to the house. They were followed by two different blasting waves of music, one that was so heavy on the bass that the lamp on the far table started to shake and another that was full of loud lyrics.
Ironhide looked a little sheepish, which was a sight that Will would never forget.
"I forgot why I had originally came to get you." Ironhide started.
"Let me guess, everyone is coming over?" Will asked, not really needing an answer.
Ironhide nodded his head before standing up and moving to the door. Will was at his side in less than a second and moved in front of the door to block him from opening it. He knew that if Ironhide wanted to that he could move him out of the way with little effort, but for right now he seemed to want to know what was on Will's mind.
"Do any of them know about what happened?" Will asked a little worried.
Ironhide shifted his eyes down and looked guilty. Will's eyes got wide at what that look meant.
"Ironhide! Tell me that they don't know." Will said getting a little angry at the fact that he hadn't kept their relationship quiet.
Ironhide puffed up his chest a little in defense.
"Only Ratchet." Ironhide told him.
Will looked at him suspiciously, not quite believing that that was all.
"Why do I get the feeling that there is a but in that statement?" Will asked.
"Ratchet.... might have told Optimus...." He admitted.
"WHAT?!" Will all but yelled.
"Ratchet always reports important information to Optimus and this is very important." Ironhide defended himself.
Will looked like his head was about to explode, as his face had turned a cherry red and his eyes were popping out a little. Finally after a few moments he seemed to calm down enough to be able to speak.
"It's fine... As long as he doesn't go spreading it around, the last thing I need is for Sam and Mikaela to know about this… at least before I say something myself."
Ironhide grunted his agreement, he didn't want to have to explain it to anyone either. His head was still hurting after telling Ratchet. Will grinned at him and moved away from the door, letting Ironhide open it for him.
After they pulled up to Will's house, Jazz and Bumblebee decided to stop their battle of music that had started about half way through their trip, much to everyone's relief. Ratchet had come close to yelling at the two of them but a private word from Optimus over their comm link kept the medic from doing it. Sam was glad to be enjoying the nice warm day with his friends, even if getting to this point had been a little embarrassing, he hoped that whatever they needed to talk about wouldn't take too long. He wasn't looking forward to talking to his mom if he was late getting home from school.
He knew that if he was late that she would end up calling the school asking where he was, and that would lead to her finding out that he had been called out by someone claiming to be her. When she found out that it was Optimus Prime that took him out of school, there would be a whole new wave of complaints from her telling him that the Autobots weren't good for him to be around. Sam shook the thoughts out of his head for now… he wanted to enjoy this day.
He stepped out of Bumblebee and moved back so that he could transform, but instead he was a little surprised when Bee turned on his holoform. He looked around and noticed that all the other Autobots had turned on their holoforms too, and he shrugged his shoulders, figuring that they didn't want to take a chance and risk being seen in the daylight. He moved back and sat down on Bee's hood; Mikaela did the same and sat on top of Jazz's alt form. She was soon joined by his holoform. Bumblebee seemed to think it was a good idea because he sat down next to Sam a moment later; Sam couldn't help the light blush that came to his face as he noticed that Bee sat a little closer then what was necessary.
Sam wanted to talk to Bee about it but wasn't going to with all the people around; so he settled on running his hand along the smooth metal, which sent a shiver through the car and the holoform sitting next to him. His attention was drawn away from Bee, however, by the sound of Will's front door opening. Two people stepped out- one was Will, who looked slightly redder then normal and a tall buff guy that Sam had never seen before. He looked like he was in the military as well, and he was about to ask who he was when he noticed the bright blue eyes and the strange tattoos that covered the man's arms.
"Is that Ironhide?" Sam asked Bumblebee.
Bee nodded his holo's head.
"Isn't it obvious?" He asked.
Sam nodded his head a little embarrassed that he had asked.
"Hey, what is everyone doing here?" Will asked.
Optimus's holoform stepped away from his truck form and addressed Will.
"I am sorry that we had to barge in on you like this William, but we have something important to talk about."
Will shook his head and waved his hand in the air casually.
"Nah, don't worry about it." He said.
"Very well." Optimus replied.
"So tell us Optimus, what is all this about? You said that you needed to talk to the three of us about something AllSpark related." Mikaela piped up from her spot with Jazz.
Optimus nodded and took a moment to collect his thoughts. He ran his hand over his facial plates, which was a thing Sam noticed that he did when he was either irritated or nervous.
"What is it Optimus? You can tell us." Sam said trying to reassure the big bot.
Optimus dropped his hand and gave Sam a kind smile.
"You three have done so much for us already; I do not wish to ask more of you." He began.
Sam got an uneasy feeling in the pit of his stomach at the Prime's words, he was sure that he was about to ask for them to do something and he was a little afraid to find out what that was.
"I have been visited by the Primes again." He continued. "They have informed me that there is an impending danger..."
Everyone jumped at the news, Will and Ironhide automatically went into soldier mode and Bumblebee and Jazz jumped right into protective mode over Sam and Mikaela.
"What sort of danger is coming?" Will and Ironhide asked at the same time.
"Is it the Decepticons?" Bumblebee asked.
"We can only guess," Ratchet told them.
"The Primes would not tell me what the danger was, only that we needed to prepare for it." Optimus said in a grave tone.
"Right, we should inform the Secretary of Defense about this. If it is the Decepticons, then we should load the gunships with saber rounds..." Will began to ramble, and was joined by Ironhide.
"We must speed up the construction on the new base as I will need to hurry up on building our defenses..." Ironhide was prattling on long as well.
The two of them continued on for a while talking about preparations and weapons that needed to be adapted to fighting the Decepticons. After a while Optimus cleared his throat, wanting to be heard over their chatter. Unfortunately, it did little to distract the two from their argument over what part of their defenses needed to be addressed first. Finally, Optimus got tired of the whole thing and blasted his truck horn loudly. The blare of the horn cut through the heated argument and shook the windows in the house, and made others jump.
Sam and Mikaela covered their ears while Jazz, Ratchet, and Bumblebee just turned down their audio receptors. After the sound of the horn faded, Sam shook his head a little to try and clear it. However, this only made it worse since he became dizzy. He lied down on top of the car and closed his eyes, waiting for some scene of normalcy to return to him. After a moment he felt better and sat back up to rejoin the conversation.
"While our defenses at the base as well as measures for a counter attack are things we must address, that is not what the Primes meant." Optimus said once everyone was able to hear again.
Everyone except Ratchet was surprised by this.
"Are you talking about us?" Sam asked.
Optimus nodded his head with a grim expression.
"Yes, your protection is most important. Not only because you three are the AllSpark but our friends as well."
"How much more protection can we be under?" Mikaela asked. "Ironhide, Bumblebee, and Jazz hardly ever leave our sides. I don't think you can do more without locking us in a room somewhere."
The three of them looked a little worried after Mikaela said that. They wouldn't put it past their over protective friends to lock them up somewhere just to keep them safe.
"No we won't do that." Ratchet said with a stern look at Jazz, Bee, and Ironhide.
"Then what will we do?" Jazz asked after a moment.
"The Primes told me of a way to speed up the transformation that is already taking place within you three." Optimus murmured while looking at Sam, Mikaela and Will. The three of them looked at each other with wary eyes, unsure about what was going to happen next.
"How is that?" Ironhide said roughly. The stocky black mech spun his cannons a few times idly, and watched his leader with darker blue optics.
Optimus's holoform moved back to his cab and disappeared inside for a brief moment, and when his holo came back out he was holding something tightly in his fists. He hesitated for a moment before moving to the three of them. Slowly he set a long, somewhat thick shard of metal in each of their hands. Sam looked at it for a moment and felt a shiver run down his spine. Since he had ran nearly the length of the city with it in his arms, he knew all too well what those shards were.
"A shard of the AllSpark?" He asked confused.
Will and Mikaela looked on in shock after Optimus nodded his head.
"I thought that there was only one shard left?" Will questioned as Ironhide leaned in to get a look at the shard from behind him.
"There was. But when I met with the Primes they told me that it would be divided into three… One for each of you." Optimus said.
"Alright, but how are these supposed to protect us?" Mikaela asked shakily, and nervously ran a hand through her ebony-colored hair.
Optimus suddenly got even more nervous after she asked that, he shifted from one foot to the next until Ratchet gave him a small shove in the back. Optimus glared at the medic who just shrugged one shoulder and jerked his head towards the three of them. Optimus sighed again before answering the three organics who looked at him anxiously.
"They will help with the formation of your sparks. Once your sparks have formed they will be able to circulate the AllSpark energy in your bodies."
"This will allow the transformation that would normally have taken months or years to happen in a matter of weeks." Ratchet finished.
The three of them were stunned and it showed on their faces. Sam could only stare at Optimus not knowing what to say or do... The sudden slamming of a door temporarily drew Sam away from his thoughts, and he looked around to see that Will was no longer with them. His front door (which was wide open before) was now closed.
Clearly Will had not taken the news of more change so well, causing Ironhide to look at Optimus with something that looked like longing in his holo eyes. A small nod from Optimus and Ironhide quickly disappeared in the house. Sam could feel the stares of Optimus and Bumblebee on him and he was sure that Jazz and Ratchet were doing the same to Mikaela. Sam didn't know what to do. He wanted to help and was prepared to eventually give up his human life as the AllSpark changed him, but he had been hoping that it would take a long while. But if he did what Optimus and the rest of the Primes were asking, then he would be giving up what little normal life he had sooner then he wanted to.
"You guys never ask for small favors, you know that?" Sam commented, forcing a small laugh to come out.
A sad sounding chirp came from Bee's alt form and his holoform looked at Sam with sad eyes. He suddenly felt a heavy weight fall on his shoulders; and when he looked up, he found himself staring face to face with Optimus. His holoform's blue eyes were staring deep into his own brown ones.
"Sam, I am sorry to have to ask you for this. You have given up so much for us already and yet here we are asking more." Optimus told him.
"It's just... too much too fast. Mikaela and I are only seventeen!" The volume of his voice was getting a little higher than normal now.
"Sam, fate rarely calls on us at a moment of our choosing." He said to him.
The words vibrated through Sam's body, the words holding more meaning then he thought possible. 'This is our destiny- at the very least it has been mine. It was fate that led my great great grandfather to the Arctic to find Megatron, it was fate that gave me the courage to defy Megatron and shove the cube in his chest. I have always been meant to do this, why fight what was meant to be?' Sam thought to himself.
A fire burned inside him and it gave him the strength to look Optimus in the eyes a moment later and nod his head firmly.
"I'll do whatever you need me to do." He said with no regret or remorse.
Optimus seemed to swell with pride at his words and his conviction; he nodded his head and gave Sam's shoulders a squeeze.
"Well now that you two are done can we get back to the matter at hand?" Ratchet's voice cut across the air to reach them.
The three of them turned to look at him and noticed that Mikaela's eyes burned with the same kind of passion that Sam's did. Whatever Ratchet had said to her had the same effect that Optimus had on Sam, and another glance around the area showed that Will was coming back out of his house with Ironhide who was looking more than pleased with himself.
Will ran his hands through his shaved hair and cleared his throat.
"I admit that I overreacted." He began, "I am sorry, things have just been a little crazy around here the last few days, not counting this whole situation with the AllSpark."
Everyone except Optimus and Ratchet had a look that said that they wanted to know more but they all figured that Will would tell them when he was ready.
"So... how does this work?" Sam asked holding up his shard.
"You are meant to ingest the shard." Ratchet informed them.
"Ingest... You mean like eat it?" Mikaela asked.
"Yes." Optimus and Ratchet answered.
"What happens after though?" Will asked. "I mean, something like this sounds like it might be painful and I am already in enough pain already."
"You will ingest the shards with a sedative I have mixed for you. It should put all of you out for a few hours until we can transport you to a medical facility where you will be placed on a constant drip of anesthesia and painkillers." Ratchet explained.
"I have already informed Secretary Keller of the situation and he has arranged for a private room for the three of you in one of the major hospitals in Mission City. Only the Secretary and we will be allowed to enter your room." Optimus said.
"Wait! What are we going to tell our parents?" Sam asked worried. "I mean I can't just up and disappear for god knows how many days or weeks."
"The forming of the sparks should only take a few days." Ratchet spoke up first with a factual tone, while Optimus continued.
"And as for your parents... we can inform them of what is going on..." Optimus began but Sam cut him off.
"NO! ...There is no way that I want my mom to find out about this right now. She will freak out and go to town on everyone here with a bat."
"What about you Mikaela?" Optimus questioned with a slight sigh present in his words.
She shrugged.
"My mom isn't even here right now, so it doesn't matter."
"Very well." Optimus said after a pause. "We can inform your parents that you are on an important assignment and will be out of town for a few days. Will that work?"
Sam nodded his head and let out a long breath.
"Good, now that that is settled." Ratchet was quite happy that they were all on the same page and moved to the back of his alt mode.
He opened the back doors and hopped up into it. Soon there was the sound of compartments and doors opening and slamming shut echoing from the back before he came back out holding a translucent container of clear liquid.
"William would you be kind enough to fetch some cups?" Ratchet asked.
Will nodded his head and went back inside his house. After some rummaging, he found the cups and came back out a moment later holding three plastic cups. Ratchet moved over to him and began to fill each one with the same amount of the clear liquid. Once he was finished, he took two of the cups and handed them to Sam and Mikaela.
"Now then, I only have room in my back for two so one will have to ride in the back of Optimus." He said.
"I'll do it." Sam volunteered and moved over to the big truck.
He climbed inside and was surprised to see how big it was. He had never been inside Optimus's alt form and suddenly he was aware that he was standing inside another living being. He slowly made his way to the back where a bed hung bolted to the back wall; he sat down and looked around, wondering if Optimus felt as weird about this as he did. The Prime's holoform steeped up into the cab and sat down in the driver's seat. He then turned around to look at Sam and gave him a warm smile.
"Everything will be alright Sam." He murmured, trying to reassure him.
It worked somewhat to calm Sam's nerves.
"So... do I just do this now or...?" He trailed off.
"It would be best if you were to swallow the shard and then consume the sedative." He was told.
Sam nodded, lifted the shard to his mouth, and took a deep breath before putting it inside. He almost gagged on the sudden sharp taste of metal; it was acrid yet tangy. He took another deep breath; he tilted his head back, and bravely swallowed the shard. He had a brief moment of panic as he thought he would choke on it, but it passed as the shard slid down his esophagus. Once the shard was down, Sam lifted the cup to his lips and drained it rapidly. The cool liquid soon entered his stomach and began to send warm waves through his body.
He lied down and rested his head on the mattress, and tried to calm his breathing as a small stabbing pain began to radiate from his midsection. He clutched his stomach and let out a groan as the pain began to increase, his eyes squeezed shut he started to feel a few tears slide down the side of his face. He had to work hard to keep himself from throwing up, and the sudden pressure of a set of hands on his shoulders told him that Optimus had moved to his side. Optimus pressed down on his shoulders to keep him from moving too much. He had to fight the urge to move; he wanted to do something to alleviate the pain- it had increased to the point where it felt like his stomach was about to rip open.
Suddenly his head began to feel light and he began to lose the strength in his limbs… He stopped struggling and his eyelids began to burn with exhaustion. He started to give into the pull of sleep and soon found the warm darkness wrapping around him like a blanket.
Once Sam had quit struggling, Optimus let out a sigh of relief. He got up in one fluid movement and moved back to the driver's seat. He began to pull away from the small house, and soon they were on the road. The rest of the Autobots followed him and together they pulled onto the highway and headed off in the direction of Mission City. Optimus noticed how close Bumblebee was to him and assumed that the young bot wanted to stay as close to Sam as he could- a normal reaction. A quick scan of the others showed that both Ironhide and Jazz were so close to Ratchet that he barely had any room to move.
Optimus chuckled a little as Ratchet's grumbling started to come over his internal communication unit, and he hoped that they would be able to make it all the way without the medic going off on the two. The highway was almost empty as they drove, except for a few cars here and there. A small beeping noise told Optimus that he was getting a call from the Secretary of Defense John Keller. He quickly answered.
"Hello Secretary Keller."
"Hello Optimus I was calling to let you know that the room for them is waiting at Mission City General, the Chief isn't happy about it but he has told me that he has given out a notice that no one is to enter the room except for your people." Keller told him.
"That is good to hear, we are on our way and shall be there in approximately an hour and thirty minutes." Optimus informed the organic.
"Good. I am sorry that I will not be able to be there when you arrive, but I am needed in Washington." He said apologetically.
"It is alright, we will make sure that they are well taken care of." Prime told him.
"Alright then, I will try and make it out there when I can. If I cannot make it down I will see everyone at the opening." He said.
"Very well, we will see you then." Optimus replied.
The line went dead and Optimus turned his attention back to the road, they continued to drive for the next thirty minutes without incident. The quiet of the cab was disturbed as a groan came from the sleeping form of Sam in the back. Optimus was worried that he would wake up before they managed to get to the hospital- even with the sedative; there was no telling what effect the AllSpark shard would have. The last thing he wanted was for him to wake up and be in extreme pain with nothing the Prime could do about it. Luckily, Sam quieted down and the silence returned to the cab.
The silence remained for the rest of the drive and when they pulled into the ER section of the hospital, there were already several people there ready to give them a hand if they needed one. When he got out, the only request Optimus made from the hospital staff was for another stretcher to be brought out. He carefully moved Sam out of his bed, and with Bumblebee's help, they laid him down on the movable bed. They got a few strange looks from the doctors who were there but they paid no attention to them. Ratchet and Ironhide wheeled over Mikaela and Will and then they all started to maneuver the three unconscious humans into the building.
The hospital was a tall building with four different floors, from the information that Optimus had found on the Internet it was a private hospital where some of the best doctors in the state worked. They were met on the main floor by a tall man in a white coat who had a frown on his face that could even compete with the one Ratchet normally wore. They were forced to stop as the man stood in front of the large elevator that would take them up to the room.
"Is there a problem?" Optimus asked calmly.
The man's frown grew at his question.
"Yes there is a problem." The man stiffly vocalized. "You people come in here and cause havoc in my hospital. Do you have any idea everything that had to be done so that these... people could have the room?"
He said the word 'people' as if he really wanted to call them something else… something possibly derogatory. Ironhide and Bumblebee did not like the tone of the doctor's voice and it showed in the way that they were both clenching their fists.
"I am sorry if we have caused you unnecessary stress." Optimus tried to calm the man down, but it was clear that nothing he said would work. The man was simply too stubborn to work out a compromise.
"I don't care who you people are or what connections you have, but believe me when I say that if any of you cause any more problems in my hospital then I will throw all of you out. I don't care what condition you are in." He declared flatly before walking off.
From behind him Optimus heard Ironhide growl.
"That human is very irritating; maybe I should introduce him to my cannons."
Prime glared at him.
"No matter what happens, no one is to harm the humans."
A nurse made her way over to them after a moment and introduced herself, she was a brunette with green eyes and was rather short.
"Hi, my name is Rhonda! I promise to do my best to make these patients comfortable during their stay here. I can show you up to the room we have set up for them if you would like."
"Thank you." Ratchet gave her a somewhat affirmative nod.
They all piled into the large elevator and the nurse pushed the button for the top floor. The ride up was quiet, and there was hardly any room to move. They finally made it up to their floor and the nurse waited for them to move the three out before exiting herself. They walked down a large hallway and passed many large rooms along the way. Some had patients in them, while others didn't. The emptiness in those rooms made the bed stand out with stark contrast. The floor seemed to be for the more stable patients, which was fine, seeing as it meant that there would be very little noise.
At the end of the hall, the nurse stopped and waved her hand over a security panel next to a large glass door that led into what had to be one of the biggest rooms in the building.
"This room is usually used when we have some very wealthy person who likes their privacy." She told them, and ushered them in.
They said thank you as the nurse walked off, they quickly moved them into the room and found three separate beds set up in the room. Ratchet told them to move Sam, Mikaela and Will onto the beds and then he began to hook them up to the machines. The first thing he hooked up was a drip that would keep them under and out of pain, and after he was finished he stood back and made sure that everything was working right.
"So what do we do now?" Jazz asked.
"Now we wait." Ratchet told him quietly.
Well now how did you all like that? I know some people might be upset that I used that line from ROTF with Optimus but I like it a lot and I think that it worked well.
I hope you enjoyed it, I had fun writing it. There will be a lot of exciting stuff in the next chapter so stick with me.
Please review you know by now how much they make me happy.
See you all next week.
